Its not a lie, that was the Turkomans, not the Persians /s
Or virtually giving us Azerbaijani as a civ while Kizilbash Warrior being UU. Safavids were literally Azerbaijini Turks. Window of opportunity is still there to give it to us.
I dont get why people think this is an issue
Some people just want more regional units or at least regional skins.
In 1999, excuse was understandable due to file space and limits of tech they had but I dont see any excuse in 2026. I still dislike why am I playing as European Swordsman as African/Mesoamericans/Middle Eastern/Asian civs. Even community made arts with simple photoshop edits and how its doable.
I would get it if swordsmen were particularly unfitting amongst all generic units the meso civs have
But they really arent
I’d rather not have to look at Attack on Titan, including in memes.
